Going to jail or being imprisoned in a dream represents deep or suppressed remorse. Traditionally, seeing someone as a jailer in a dream represents someone you have wronged. However, this person may also be an archetype.
Dreaming about someone in jail might represent your own suppressed and locked emotions. Before you seek people in your waking life to figure out what your dream is about, remember that these dreams are frequently about you and your thoughts or beliefs. When you dream about someone throwing you in jail, it might just be a depiction of your psyche expressing shame, regret, or dismay about acts you have committed against someone for which you believe you should or will face repercussions.
If you are aware that you are guilty of anything in a dream, the mind frequently reflects a harsher sentence than is warranted or exaggerates the offence you have committed. If you understand what the dream is about, you should strive to apologize for the future and repair the damage done. Your guilt leaking out like this is a sign that you're feeling out of sorts.

If you see the jailer in your dream and you recognize them, the dream is often about your guilt concerning someone. Although the person's face is not necessarily that of someone you know, you may still learn a lot from individuals in your dreams even if you can't see their faces. Dreaming about someone particular shows affection for them, but when you don't know the person, it might be a corporation, a cause, or even the archetype of someone. You are having the dream for a purpose, and just though you do not identify the individual in the dream does not indicate that the dream is worthless.
In a dream, being in jail might represent feeling imprisoned or smothered. If you see your lover's face, it might mean that you are not emotionally prospering in the scenario. Other instances include viewing your parents or boss as your jailer since they have power and may not always be fair in their rules or judgments, and you are not able or permitted to express your true self.
Sometimes this is your sentiments being liberated, allowing you to forgive and go on. This might be depicted as the conclusion of a protracted fight, such as one involving the courts, when you can finally breathe a sigh of relief and go on with your life.
